When I first decided I wanted to ask my wife to marry me, I had just graduated from college and began my career as an accountant. I didn't have enough money saved to buy her the ring she asked for, a 3 carat diamond ring, but I wanted to show her how much I loved her nonetheless. I felt bad that I could not afford the real thing, but I didn't want that to stop us from getting married. So instead I got her a round brilliant briolite solitaire ring with a six prong tiffany setting in 14 karat white gold. When I finally asked her to marry me, she was almost in tears when she saw the 3 carat stone, and the rest is history! She owns a lot of diamond jewelry, and definitely could not tell the difference. Since the ring was slightly too small for her finger, she decided to take it to a jeweler to be sized. I was afraid that the jeweler might be able to tell the difference and pass the information onto my fiancee. When she came back, she had a huge smile on her face. The jeweler then complimented her on the ring and said, "your husband must really love you to get you such an expensive ring." Apparently he told her it was worth upwards of $35,000 retail. I can't tell you how thankful I am that I was able to get married without getting into serious financial problems. I was able to save my money to put a down payment on a beautiful house we now live in. Thanks again, I can't wait to buy more briolite jewelry for other occasions.

The chemical composition of the stone, combined with ideal cutting achieved through extraordinarily precise faceting machines, makes Briolite the best diamond substitute on the market.Although Briolite is heavier and more dense than a natural diamond, the refractive index of Briolite is closer than any other known counterpart.
